Everyone makes mistakes.
It has been like this since as far back as human history can be traced, and it will be like this going into the future.
Making mistakes is part of us.
We can't be perfect in an imperfect world.
You just have to choose between one of the two types of people:
those who learn from their mistakes, or
those who try to justify their mistakes.
I was watching "The Middle" on TV and from one of the episodes about the small doll house dining table that Frankie bought, thinking that it was a real life size one, it struck me then and there, what happiness means.
Happiness is when you stop trying to look for happiness.
To put it in other words, there are greater powers at play out there or up there in the entire universe.
When everything goes against your way at times, you should just look down, see what you have in your hands, do what you need to do, and soldier on for the storm to pass.
There will always going to be high tides and low tides in anyone's life. When it is the low tides, don't fight it. You are just going to waste your time and energy. Instead, go along with it, and then come back harder when the high tides come along. You have to go with the flow and learn to ride on it.
It is not about persevering for your entire life. It is about learning your strength and weakness, and doing the right thing at the right time.
And to put it even simpler, you need to learn to understand yourself.
I wish you well in your future, and I hope you can savour ever moment of your life, both ups and downs.
